Consistently blowing distortions and intense energy, Kelompok Penerbang Roket have released a debut album titled Teriakan Bocah (Screaming of a Kid) in 2015. Produced by one of Indonesia’s finest guitarist, Didit Saad. The album contains 7 songs echoing protests, critics and honest depictions of Jakarta and Indonesia.
And howled loud did Teriakan Bocah. The album, released by Berita Angkasa Records, was reputed one of the best albums of 2015 by various mass media in Indonesia. Rolling Stone Indonesia honored the album as best album of 2015, proclaimed: “Teriakan Bocah is a work of young rock scientists that revives the savagery of 70’s Indo-rock. Imagine Duo Kribo hooliganism or early Panbers psychedelia modernly processed, with a significant dose, becoming a fresh, wild monster.”

Sigilosa al pasar
Esa loba es especial
Mirala, caminar caminar
Quién no ha querido a una diosa licántropa
En el ardor de una noche romantica
Mis aullidos son el llamado
Por fin he encontrado un remedio infalible que borre del todo la culpa
No pienso quedarme a tu lado mirando la tele y oyendo disculpas
La vida me ha dado un hambre voráz y tu apenas me das caramelos
Me voy con mis piernas y mi juventud por ahí aunque te maten los celos
Una loba en el armario
Tiene ganas de salir
Deja que se coma el barrio
Antes de irte a dormir
Tengo tacones de aguja magnetica
Para dejar a la manada frenetica
La luna llena como una fruta
No da consejos ni los escucha
Llevo conmigo un radar especial para localizar solteros
Si acaso me meto en aprietos tambien llevo el número de los bomberos
Ni tipos muy lindos, ni divos, ni niños ricos, yo se lo que quiero
Pasarla muy bien y portarme muy mal en los brazos de algún caballero
Una loba en el armario
Tiene ganas de salir
Deja que se coma el barrio
Antes de irte a dormir
Cuando son casi la una la loba en celo saluda a la luna
Duda si andar por la calle o entrar en un bar a probar fortuna
Ya está sentada en su mesa y pone la mira en su proxima presa
Pobre del desprevenido que no se esperaba una de esas
Sigilosa al pasar
Sigilosa al pasar
Esa loba es especial
Mirala caminar, caminar
Deja que se coma el barrio
Antes de irte a dormir
The song "Loba" by Kelompok Penerbang Roket tells the story of a woman who is tired of being in a stagnant relationship and wants to break free and explore her wild side. The opening lyrics, "Sigilosa al pasar," meaning "Sneaking by stealthily" in Spanish, sets the tone for the rest of the song. The woman described in the song is a special kind of wolf who walks with confidence and purpose. She is compared to a goddess werewolf who is desired by many men. The lyrics "Mis aullidos son el llamado, Yo te quiero un lobo domesticado" translate to "My howls are the call, I want a domesticated wolf like you."
As the song continues, the lyrics speak about a loba, or wolf, that has been hiding in a woman's closet, waiting to break free. She wants to leave behind her mundane existence and embrace her wild side. She states that she has a magnetic high heel to lead her pack and that the full moon does not give advice but only watches as she explores her freedom. The woman enjoys her life, has a radar to find single men, and the number of firefighters in case of emergencies.
Overall, the song's message is about a woman's desire to break free and explore her inner desires. The lyrics represent a call to action for those who feel that they are living a stagnant life and want to explore their wild side.
